Background
The A-kinase anchor proteins (AKAPs) are a group of structurally diverse proteins, which have the common function of binding to the regulatory subunit of protein kinase A (PKA) and confining the holoenzyme to discrete locations within the cell (1) . AKAP4, also known as hAKAP82, is a major sperm fibrous sheath protein that localizes to the entire length of the flagellum of human sperm (2) . It has been suggested that AKAP4 plays multiple roles in sperm motility and regulation of signal transduction pathways (2) . AKAP4 has also been postulated to be a potential biomarker for breast cancer (3) .
